Just a post-Sandy blackout observation... BoweryBoogie noted this too the other day: an uptick in graffiti that occurred during the blackout ... a few examples...
BoweryBoogie heard (unconfirmed) that the NYPD arrested four graffiti artists for tagging walls during the blackout.
There SO much more graffiti around. Such a bummer.
ReplyDeleteGrieve, it's really an insult to actual artists everywhere to call these perps artists. This is the work of vandals, petty criminals. Whatevs.
ReplyDeletei think i hate the hipster "write an obscure phrase or compound word" graffiti more so than the illegible throw-up tags. at least the latter are rooted in nyc culture and history.
ReplyDeleteit's graffiti. i like it all.
